Unidentified gunmen have killed at least two people and injured 14 others at a Fort Myers nightclub in Florida.
The shooting took place in the parking lot of Club Blu Bar and Grill. The call alerting police to the shooting was received at 12.30 a.m. Monday, reports the CNN.
The police has detained three adults in relation to the shooting and investigations are underway.
A flier posted on Facebook advertised a "Swimsuit Glow Party" at the club Sunday night. It said no identification would be required to enter, meaning the party was open to all ages.
Investigators and crime scene personnel are trying to determine what happened.
Police are investigating two other related scenes, one on Ortiz Avenue, where a person of interest has been detained. The other scene is on Parkway Street.
The Lee County Sheriff's Office stopped a vehicle that had a suspect in it, Mulligan added, but did not give any additional detail about the stop.
The attack comes less than two months after Omar Mateen killed 49 people and wounded 53 others in the Pulse gay nightclub, in Orlando.
